In this paper, Residential roof top photovoltaic system with 9.9 kW design is proposed. The system composed of 200 Watts solar array 33 panels connecting in series 10 strings and parallels 3 strings which have maximum voltage and current are 350 V and 23.8 A. The 10 kW sinusoidal grid-connected inverter with window voltage about 270-350 is selected to convert and transfer DC Power to AC Power at PCC (Point of Common Coupling) of power system following to utility standard. However the impact of fluctuation and uncertainty of weather condition of PV may decrease the voltage stability and voltage collapse of power system. In order to solve this problem the energy storage such 120 V 1200 Ah battery bank and 30 kVAR capacitor are designed for voltage stability control. The other expensed for installing the system such battery charger, cable, accessories and maintenance cost are concerned. The economic analysis by using investment from money loan with interest about 7% and use own money which loss income of deposit about 3% are calculated as 671,844 and 547,044 for PV system with energy storage and non energy storage respectively. The solar energy from PV is about 101,616 Bath per year which evaluated by using the value of $5kWh/m^2/day$ from average peak sun hour (PSH) of the Thailand and 6.96 Bath/kWh of Feed in Tariff Incentive. The payback periods of four scenarios are proposed follow as i) PV system with energy storage and use loan money is 15 years ii) PV system with no energy storage and use loan money is 10 years iii) PV system with energy storage and use deposit money is 9 years iv) PV system with energy storage and use deposit money is 7 years. In addition, the other scenarios of economic analysis such no FIT support and other type of economic analysis such NPV and IRR are proposed in this paper.

This study describes the result on PV system for evaluating the performance of small fishing boats. Photovoltaic system with 200 watts power generation facilities on the 3-ton fishing boat was carried. Load test was performed on the condition that the work lamps lit during night operations. As a result the performance can be used for more than two hours at 60 watt work lamps. The load test was performed on the condition that fishing vessels are on the cruising condition at sea. The solar power systems have been investigated as a power generation efficiency of about 36.55%. Additional tests show that the power generation efficiency is difficult to expect a maximum of 50% or more. Fuel consumption of fishing boats by installing a solar power system is reduced. Also the PV system is useful for the verification of their availability for fishing vessels as well as the satisfaction of the fishermen. The results for the durability of the photovoltaic device is acceptable, including a solar panel, controller and the performance exhibited no breakage in the harsh marine environment or failure so far. The installed PV system was confirmed that the durability with at least 2 years.

In this paper, We have simulated the output variation of the PV arrays installation with position & angle change. The existing 3 solar array system are $43^{\circ}$ southeast and each of the mounting angle is $17^{\circ}$. The PV output power is 240 kW. The composite studied systems in this paper arrays altered 2 PV array among 3 PV array system- the output 144kW. We simulated this system using Solar Pro ver.4.1. The simulation conditions are southwest $43^{\circ}/array$, mount angle $27^{\circ}/array$. Because the southeast have shadow effect-higher mountain The purpose of southwest $43^{\circ}$ is reduce the shadow effect. The simulation results of the suggestion design algorithm compared to 1,590 kWh/year output is increased with the southeast.

It is important to find the maximum efficient conditions for the output of the photovoltaic(PV) system to determine the optimal installation location of the PV system. The output of PV system depends on the irradiance. Therefore, this paper introduces the pilot experiment set to track the output of PV system according to the variance of irradiance and analyzes the result of experiment using this set. The pilot experiment set consists of the PV modules and the inverter to convert DC power to AC power. For this experiment, the fixed and tracked modules are used.

The remote monitoring system of this paper is a program for monitoring the temperature, voltage, and solar irradiance that made from photovoltaic(PV) system in remote area. And this monitoring system helps to check the efficiency and situation of PV system. The main subject of this paper is about making the more useful monitoring program to get and save the data from PV system. This program is monitoring the PV system by using the LabVIEW program.

PV system is easy to operate and maintain than the other power generating system since it generally contains no moving parts, operates silently and requires very little maintenance. A solar cell generates DC power from sunlight whose power is different at any instance according to condition of irradiation and temperature variables. In order to improve the system utility factor and efficiency of energy conversion, it is desirable to operate the PV system at maximum power point of solar cell under different condition This paper describes the experimental results of the PV system contain solar modules and a DC-DC converter(boost type chopper) using fuzzy controller. The experimental results show that the PV system always operates at maximum power point of solar cells having stabilized output voltage waveform with relatively small ripple component.

The excessive need of power is creating an unbalance situation in power sector, where solar energy is one of the best solutions among other energy sources to mitigate this demand. It is globally accepted because of its flexibility and long life compared to others. A lot research is going on to enhance the energy efficiency by introducing photovoltaic (PV) power generation technology, but still irradiation of PV power is the major problem. In this manuscript, we have designed PV module using single diode methodology and also the solar conversion efficiency was boosted with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) by using perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm. The simulation was done for $1000W/m^2$ and $800W/m^2$ at solar irradiance in cell temperature of 25C and 40C degree levels in PSIM tool.

In our study, we collected data from a 100 kW floating photovoltaic (PV) system installed in Gyeongnam Hapcheon Dam and observed correlations between the power generation of the floating PV system and the irradiance, water temperature, humidity, ambient temperature, wind speed, and module temperature. Firstly, there was little correlation between the water temperature and power generation. Secondly, the ambient temperature, wind speed, and humidity all showed greater correlations with power generation. Finally, the power generation was very highly correlated with the irradiance and module temperature. In conclusion, the power generation of the floating PV system is related individually to environmental factors.

Islanding phenomenon of a grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) power conditioning system (PCS) is said to occur if the PCS continues to power a section of the utility system after that section has been disconnected from the utility source. Since islanding creates hazards for personnel and equipment, PCSs are required to detect and prevent Et. In this paper, several islanding detection methods (IDMs) and reactive power variation method are described. Islanding test results for 9kW PCS are presented for verification.

This paper aims at enhancing the electric production efficiency of photovoltaic(PV) system. The electrical power of PV system is proportional to light intensity on a PV module surface. In this paper, we apply two types of systems to enhance power generation efficiency. First, of all, concentring sunlight using specular surface and one-axis tracking system which traces the sun with vertical direction are applied in this project. From this, we analyze the fixed type method and power generation efficiency.
